Bust Magazine Pays Homage to Twin Peaks Style

The boyfriend and I have been gorging ourselves on Twin Peaks episodes over the past few weeks and I am firmly convinced that David Lynch's sexy, moody, quirky show is one of the best things to have ever graced network television. In one of those bizarre occurrences of synchronicity, I discover Bust Magazine's new Aug/Sep issue features a fashion-spread devoted to Twin Peaks at the very moment I am pondering the perfection of Audrey's high-waisted plaid skirt and black-and-white saddle oxfords (see previous post for reference to my purchase of similar black and white lovelies). The show has aged quite well, and the makeup, hair, and wardrobe have an early-90's-meets-the-50's vibe. Sherilyn Fenn (who plays Audrey) and Lara Flynn Boyle (who plays Donna) are both amazing to look at, and Kyle MacLachlan is a dapper, loveable, dark-haired god.

I am so thrilled Bust did this spread -- they are one of the most interesting/provocative/thoughtful/progressive magazines out there as far as I'm concerned, and no one could have done it better. Here is a sneak peak:

BTW, the Aug-Sep issue of Bust is all-around great -- it features several of my favorite style bloggers, including Sally Jane Vintage and Francesca from The Snail and the Cyclops. Check it out!

coincidentally, i have also been devouring twin peaks recently. i got the gold edition complete box set a few weeks ago and have been completely addicted. it's hands down the best show that has ever been made. coming in close second is the fugitive (1960s). nothing else is even in the running. strange coincidence to see this spread in bust.
